Jazz music

Any jazz fans here? Im talkin bout some of that John Coltrane, Wayne Shorter, Chris Potter, you know, bebop/hardbop/fusion/contemporary type shit. Im a jazz musician myself and play sax. When you're stoned, this music, listening and performing, is unbelievable. Improvisation man.

Dj Quik- Blow

Dj Quik fuckin with jazz musicians/instruments and is a fucking trip while high.

i play guit but not jazz

i prefer blues

but try searching a very undeground jazz fusion group, screaming headless torsoes

crazy man

totally crazy

What you know bout Weather Report? :stoned:

I'm in a jazz band at my school and play piano. I also have a band that I play with my friends and we have a kind of jazzy sound. Were actually more of a jazz/funk/punk/blues/jam/rock band if that makes sense. We wanted to call ourselves frankenstein because I'm kind of a jazz pianist, our bass player has a really funky vibe, our drummer is straight up rock and our guitarist is a crazy metalhead. Instead, we decided to call ourselves Fikus (hense my name). most people would think it wouldnt mix and most people are suprised were even friends because we hang out in different groups but I think thats what makes us sound so good. anyway, we want to start playing for other people as opposed to just playing for our enjoyment. weve made some really lo-fi recordings of us jamming but were saving up to get some studio time. who knows, maybe well make it big. Oh, and were hiring this kid to make us a website. ill post a link to it when he's done

I'm into jazz. About five years ago or so was the first time I heard Miles' Kind of Blue and it opened up a whole new musical realm to me. Coltrane followed then Monk, Mingus and others. I play a little guitar myself but I'm not very good with improvisation.. especially after a smoke, I keep trying though. Wes Montgomery and Kenny Burrell are probably my most listened too jazz guitarists, good stuff. I've really only just started to get into fusion... it's cool sound while stoned.

can u post a song that youve recorded? dont care if sound is bad

its not like we suck or anything, its that we dont have very many mics and recorded it all onto an 8 track in one take. I could find the original somewhere but that would require getting off my ass and moving around. I've picked the tracks apart and am editing them on the computer so they sound halfway descent. Ill see if i can get my friend to email this one jam we do called Brainworm

ill join your band! lol

great! can you sing, because none of us sure can. we could use another guitar player too because our guitarist now says he;s getting sick of playing "hippie) music
